The CallAir B-1 Ag Commander was a specialized agricultural aircraft designed to meet the growing demands of aerial crop dusting in the 1960s. First flown on January 15, 1966, at Afton, Wyoming, this single-engine low-wing monoplane featured a substantial chemical hopper capacity of 1,135 units, nearly twice the size of its predecessor, the CallAir A-9. With its robust construction optimized for agricultural spraying operations, the B-1 represented CallAir Inc.'s commitment to serving the specialized aerial application market from their Wyoming manufacturing facility.
